Childhood offending, adverse experiences and systemic failure: Findings from a NZ national birth cohort 2000–2019
Settlement trajectories of nearly 25,000 forced migrants in New Zealand: Longitudinal insights from administrative data
Aotearoa New Zealand provides differential settlement support to forced migrants, primarily determined by how they receive protection status – as asylum seekers, refugees, or through other visa pathways. Despite these differences, there is limited quantitative evidence of their settlement outcomes related to work, social welfare, education and housing. In response, this study presents administrative data of adults from refugee backgrounds compose…
Determinants and disparities: A simulation approach to the case of child health care

In this journal, Karen Rowlingson, Stewart Connor and Michael Orton ha…
A collaborative approach to bridging the research-policy gap through the development of policy advice software
We have developed a software-based tool to support a dynamic micro-simulation model of life-course development (to age 13) as an aid to policy makers assessing the impact of policies affecting children. We demonstrate how this approach bridges the research-policy gap by creating: (1) an easy transfer of evidence in a form that policymakers can use (for example, ‘What is the policy influence of X on Y?’); and (2) a ‘pull’ system of knowledge trans…
